Comment(by doughera):

 Actually, I'd expect it to be a much more difficult task, since the
 different structures involved are intended to be isomorphic (at least for
 the cache and flags values) and since the current specific memory layout
 is intertwined in complex and undocumented ways with the various memory
 management and garbage collection routines.

 A good starting question might be:  "What, exactly, are those structures
 supposed to look like after this?"
